Da Nang to Hue Destination Reviews
AM
Alessandra MAfter waiting for more than one hour in the pick up place, they sent a car to take us to another pick up place where we waited another 30’. We should have arrived to destination at 11:00 and we acually arrived 2 hours later. Furthermore, the stalls in the sleepbus where very tight and the staff treated us pretty much like animals and not customers.

Richard SScenic train journey, air conditioned and comfortable seats. Could take photos at door window (would be better if you could open the window of door). Signs/train info a bit confusing at station, but staff helpful enough.

Rafael AThe Bus manager text me to go one hour before departure and finally the bus arrived at the time scheduled. So I was waiting one hour. The bed wasn't clean, the blancket was dirty and the driver too fast and many movements on the road. I won't repeat.

Best-Rated Companies for this Route
Unlike buses or taxis which have numerous companies offering their services, train service is usually offered by just one major company in each country. As railway service requires a large amount of infrastructure, most railway companies are government-owned and are a part of the national transport system.
One of the best advantages of travelling by train is that railway stations are often conveniently located within or very near major cities and urban areas. Immediately on arrival to their destination, travellers find themselves in close proximity to important facilities like hotels, supermarkets, and hospitals.
If you travel with a lot of bags and luggage, trains are your best option. Luggage weight limits on trains are rather flexible and allow you to carry multiple bags with you.
Special or luxury trains feature sufficient legroom which allows you to stretch your legs and relax. In comfort and space these train seats can be compared to business class airplane seats.
Similar to buses, trains can provide a variety of amenities to make your travel more comfortable and enjoyable. Modern trains have WIFI service, a snack counter and a drinking bar. Onboard toilets can be a life saver for travellers with queasy stomachs.
Lastly, unlike buses and other overland means of transport, trains are very rarely involved in accidents.
